@ACL - Agreed. I read the leaves the same as you. Better the way it is, but it will happen is my guess. Better us than AA. I kept hearing in ATL during the quick indoc that DAL has 2 years to make 'all' the mergers happen that they want before the Uni-Cal merger happens. Huh....we'll see what happens. My guess is that AK knows it's going to happen and they are protecting themselves and the share holders by tightening ship and raising the stock price. Currently $50+...wow...a top price. Stoked share holders (including myself.) Let's watch the fun.
